Oieeeeee!!!! A simple zip malfunction that's all!!! :oops: :oops: :oops:

First time out in Inters for me and I had mega fun! Thank you to Jay for his patience and help (oh, and a cheeky blast on the 'Blade :wink: ) and Kawasakiracer for the use of Kermit...he's like a more refined, sorted Bluey! Hmmm......... :wink:

Despite a wet start to the day, the circuit dried up really quite quickly and the whole day was Red flag free - really impressed with those who'd never done a TD, huge smiles all round :)):

For those lurking and comtemplating a first TD, I cannot recommend this one enough. Simon has another date organised in August - GET ON THAT LIST!! DO IT!! :mrgreen:

Huuuuge thanks to Simon for organising yet another Llandow for SWBers, I don't think we all realise quite how much time it takes up in putting this together ~ cheers matey :)):

Weather turned out better than expected, fun had by all. Not much else to report, just the usual Llandow day. Layne didnt overtake me all day.

Tried a chest mount. Didnt work very well...

Was a geat day best one todate was worried with it being first time in interns had great fun on the track a little sore today tho seen a few grumpy people on the way back and was very luck as when we got back we relised my bike had slipped off the stand in the back of the van so one or two more straps next time lol. Look forward to the next one with swb (prob next year now) thanks for a great day Simone look forward to seeing all the pics as I got my usual photograph out on the track this year.
